Overview

package client

The client package contains the client-side types for interfacing with reverst tunnels. The client itself is a http Server implementation that dials out to a tunnel server, performs a handshake to identify and authenticate the relevant tunnel group to register with, and then it switches roles into that of the server.

Example

package main

import (
    "context"
    "crypto/tls"
    "net/http"

    "go.flipt.io/reverst/client"
)

func main() {
    server := &client.Server {
        TunnelGroup: "some-group",
        Handler: http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request {
            w.Write([]byte("Hello, World!"))
        })),
        TLSConfig: &tls.Config{InsecureSkipVerify: true}
    }

    server.DialAndServe(ctx, "some.reverst.tunnel:8443")
}

Types

type Authenticator

type Authenticator interface {
	Authenticate(context.Context, *protocol.RegisterListenerRequest) error
}

Authenticator is a type which adds authentication credentials to an outbound register listener request. It is called before the request is serialized and written to the stream.

func BasicAuthenticator

func BasicAuthenticator(username, password string) Authenticator

BasicAuthenticator returns an instance of Authenticator which configures Basic authentication on requests passed to Authenticate using the provided username and password

func BearerAuthenticator

func BearerAuthenticator(token string) Authenticator

BearerAuthenticator returns an instance of Authenticator which configures Bearer authentication on requests passed to Authenticate using the provided token string

type AuthenticatorFunc

type AuthenticatorFunc func(context.Context, *protocol.RegisterListenerRequest) error

AuthenticatorFunc is a function which implements the Authenticator interface

func (AuthenticatorFunc) Authenticate

func (a AuthenticatorFunc) Authenticate(ctx context.Context, r *protocol.RegisterListenerRequest) error

Authenticate delegates to the underlying AuthenticatorFunc

type Server

type Server struct {
	// TunnelGroup is an identifier for the group in which this server should
	// be registered against on the target tunnel server.
	TunnelGroup string

	// Handler is the root http.Handler of the server instance.
	Handler http.Handler

	// Logger allows the caller to configure a custome *slog.Logger instance.
	// If not defined then Server uses the default instance returned by slog.Default.
	Logger *slog.Logger

	// TLSConfig is used to configure TLS encryption over the Quic connection.
	// See DefaultTLSConfig for the parameters used which this is set to nil.
	TLSConfig *tls.Config

	// QuicConfig is used to configure Quic connections.
	// See DefaultQuicConfig for the parameters used which this is set to nil.
	QuicConfig *quic.Config

	// Authenticator is the Authenticator used to authenticate outbound
	// listener registration requests.
	Authenticator Authenticator

	// OnConnectionReady is called when the server has successfully
	// registered itself with the upstream tunnel server
	OnConnectionReady func(protocol.RegisterListenerResponse)
}

Server is an alternative HTTP server that dials to a reverst Tunnel server and attempts to remotely register itself as a listener. Given the connection is established and authorized as a valid listener the server switches into serving mode and handles HTTP/3 requests over the connection. The Tunnel should forward requests to this connection and any others in the same tunnel group. The group is identified via the TLSConfig.ServerName.

func (*Server) DialAndServe

func (s *Server) DialAndServe(ctx context.Context, addr string) (err error)

DialAndServe dials out to the provided address and attempts to register the server as a listener on the remote tunnel group.
